    This trip is a mountaineering-style snow climb of historic Mt. St. Helens in Washington State. The St. Helens climb is done in a day, with additional days needed for travel time. The climb is fairly strenuous, at about 10 miles with 5600 ft of elevation gain, but considered non-technical from a mountaineering perspective - crampons and ice axe required, but no crevasse risk or sections requiring roped travel or belay.

    This is a multi-day backpack (Friday through Monday, with a likely departure on Thursday night after work, depending on destination) to northern NM/southern CO. The exact location will be determined once we know what snow conditions will be like.  We may set up a car shuttle. Options include the South San Juans, Weminuche Wilderness, or Chama area. We will return by midday/early afternoon on Monday.

    Physically fit beginner backpackers are welcome to join. I'll be happy to advise on gear. We will have a 1-2 Zoom meetings before our departure to hash out details.

    This is a return trip to the Wind River Range in WY. This is a week-long outing with significant off-trail components, targeting remote valleys with beautiful lakes and impressive peaks. We will be covering 50-60 miles with multiple options to extend or shorten the route, depending on conditions. Trail days will be up to 15 miles, off-trail days on the order of 6 miles, with the option of additional excursions from camp should we arrive early.

    I would like to announce the eighteenth edition of our successful hike/explore/bike trips to Moab. We have been going almost every November since 2008, and every time has been a great success. The 2014 trip report can be found at http://lamountaineers.org/node/479#comment-57. Let me (Bill Priedhorsky) know if you would like to join the trip.
